Kennedy Jr. became the nation\u2019s health secretary, his press secretary delivered an order from him to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: Take down your advertising campaign promoting flu vaccines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bostonrelocationinsider.com\/?p=3618\">How Norway\u2019s first female soccer president brought the men\u2019s team back to prominence<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>It was Feb. 14, 2025. Flu season was in full swing, and it was a bad one. That same day, the CDC reported that influenza-related ailments had killed 68 children \u2014 11 that week alone \u2014 and 16,000 people overall. There had been 29 million reported cases and 370,000 hospitalizations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Nicole Coffin, the veteran communications expert who took the press secretary\u2019s call, dashed off an email to her supervisor, Kevin Griffis. \u201cAndrew Nixon\/HHS gave me a call and asked that we pull out of circulation all campaign ad buys related to flu or anything encouraging shots or vaccinations,\u201d she wrote, referring to the Health and Human Services Department, which Kennedy leads. \u201cHe said this request came directly from the Secretary.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><span>Get Starting Point<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span>A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<div><label>Enter Email<\/label><\/p>\n<div><button>Sign Up<\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span>Alarmed, Griffis wrote to his boss, Susan Monarez, the acting CDC director, warning that halting the campaign in the middle of an outbreak \u201cpresents significant reputational risk to the agency\u201d and could raise \u201clegal issues.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The exchanges over the flu vaccine campaign are in a cache of internal CDC emails obtained last week by The New York Times and published online this week. The messages provide a detailed look at a period of transition in which the leaders of the nation\u2019s public health agency frequently found themselves buffeted and dismayed by the agenda imposed by Kennedy and the new Trump administration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The emails begin in January, before Kennedy was confirmed, and end in mid-August, about a week before the White House fired Monarez as CDC director at the secretary\u2019s request, just 29 days after her Senate confirmation. While Kennedy\u2019s fraught relationship with the health agency is well known, the messages, coupled with interviews, shed light on how CDC employees scrambled to meet his demands \u2014 often on matters regarding vaccines and autism \u2014 as the administration gutted the agency\u2019s ranks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>When Kennedy was considering remaking the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices, the panel of outside experts that advises the CDC on vaccine policy, agency employees were dispatched to a nearby National Archives facility to dig up 60 years\u2019 worth of historical information on the committee, including its original charter from 1964 and policies on how it handled conflicts of interest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The request came from Stuart Burns, a close ally of the secretary who functions as his point man inside the CDC director\u2019s office. A staff member initially said Burns needed the information by the next day, to \u201cinform his understanding of the current state of ACIP operations, as well as the historical glide path that brought us here.\u201d But the research took several weeks, including a search of the CDC\u2019s museum and a trip to the archives in Morrow, Georgia, about a 40-minute drive from the agency\u2019s headquarters in Atlanta.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>When it was over, Dr. Debra Houry, the agency\u2019s chief medical officer at the time, wrote to Burns that it would be \u201chelpful to prioritize,\u201d in the future, given how many people had been laid off.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cCan we discuss?\u201d she wrote. \u201cStaff had to pull 28 boxes for this request.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Houry gave more than 250 pages of emails to the Senate health committee in response to its written questions after she testified in September. She was a party to all the messages. A former emergency physician who worked at the CDC under three presidents, she said in an interview that she wanted to \u201cshine the light\u201d on public health decisions she considered dangerous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The panel\u2019s ranking member, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., posted the emails Tuesday evening along with a memo from his staff. A spokesperson for the committee chair, Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., did not respond to a request for comment on what the panel might do with them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Officials at the Department of Health and Human Services did not respond to a detailed list of questions about the emails. But Kennedy has said repeatedly that he regards the CDC as corrupt and that he feels an obligation as secretary to shake things up, both in the agency and in his department, including by firing people.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI came into this job to change the culture of a broken agency that has presided over the worst decline in public health in American history,\u201d he recently wrote on the social platform X, in a post criticizing coverage by the Times of his management of the health department.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span>Testifying on Capitol Hill after he fired Monarez as head of the agency, the secretary told senators that \u201ceffectiveness &#8212; not politics \u2014 will be the watchword of our leadership.\u201d But the emails confirm Monarez\u2019s own Senate testimony that President Donald Trump\u2019s political appointees were firmly in control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cSusan,\u201d wrote Matthew Buckham, then Kennedy\u2019s chief of staff, on Aug. 19. \u201cLet\u2019s get on a call this week to discuss in depth, but until we can connect directly, I wanted to elevate the absolute need for political review of major policy decisions at CDC.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The aim, he wrote, was to ensure that \u201cpolitical leadership all have eyes\u201d on major decisions and that personnel changes needed to be run past the White House.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bostonrelocationinsider.com\/?p=3616\">NFL owners installed natural grass for the World Cup. Why won\u2019t they keep it for their own teams?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cWe will talk soon,\u201d Buckham concluded, signing the message, \u201cMake America Great! Matt.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The pressure from Kennedy\u2019s aides in Washington, who took office before he was confirmed, began before his arrival, the emails show. Trump\u2019s executive order, issued on his first day in office, \u201cending radical and wasteful government D.E.I. programs\u201d prompted CDC officials to remove hundreds of agency webpages, including data.cdc.gov \u2014 a massive collection of public health data \u2014 that might contain information about race or gender.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>But at 10:30 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 31 \u2014 one day after Kennedy wrapped up his Senate confirmation hearings \u2014 Monarez issued an urgent plea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cApologies for the late request, but we need to get the ACIP website up and functioning,\u201d she wrote, referring to the panel of vaccine advisers. Noting that some webpages were no longer functioning \u201clikely due to language modifications needing to be implemented,\u201d she asked her underlings to call her as soon as they got the message so they could talk about an \u201cexpedited process.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The emails did not offer a reason. But Houry, and another former employee who spoke on condition of anonymity to avoid a backlash, said in interviews that Kennedy\u2019s aides, already at work in Washington, feared that removing vaccine-related pages might endanger Kennedy\u2019s chances of being confirmed.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span>At 8:30 the following morning, CDC leaders had a telephone negotiating session with top health department leaders, including Stefanie Spear, Kennedy\u2019s closest adviser and later his deputy chief of staff, to figure out what would stay and what would go. They devised a color-coded spreadsheet: green for pages that had gone back up; red for pages that needed to stay down; yellow for pages that \u201cHHS\u201d \u2014 shorthand for Kennedy\u2019s office \u2014 wanted restored.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The advisory committee pages were put back up, with the exception of information about vaccines to prevent mpox, a sexually transmitted disease that primarily affects men who have sex with men. The mpox website has since been restored, although the CDC has reverted to calling the disease \u201cmonkeypox,\u201d a name that the World Health Organization abandoned in 2022 after agreeing with public health experts who said it was racist and stigmatized patients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>CDC political leaders went to great lengths to install Kennedy\u2019s allies in key positions, even if they did not have crucial professional qualifications for the job, the documents show. The agency tried to use Title 42, a federal code that permits scientific experts to be hired without going through the regular civil service process, to put a businessperson who was a longtime activist on behalf of parents of children with autism in charge of its National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The activist, Mark Blaxill, a Harvard Business School graduate and founder of the group SafeMinds, has written books and medical journal articles on autism; one was retracted in 2023. CDC human resources officials concluded that he lacked the scientific qualifications to be considered a \u201cdistinguished consultant\u201d under the law. He now works at the agency in another capacity and does not run the birth defects center.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The emails confirm, as the Times has previously reported, that Kennedy was deeply involved in efforts to gain control over the Vaccine Safety Datalink, or VSD, a database of millions of confidential medical records that, he believes, has the potential to prove a link between vaccines and autism, a theory that has been debunked in numerous studies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>His own top aides were under pressure, too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Kennedy \u201cwants to buy all the VSD data and put it in the office of the Secretary,\u201d Reyn Archer, his senior counselor, wrote to Houry and other officials. \u201cThis may be a leap but there are other ways to achieve this but today CDC is not ready to take big leaps. I am being told we must find a way to take big leaps. I need your help on this.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>While the secretary steered clear of most career scientists, at least in his early days in office, he was giving direct instructions to one of them, William Thompson, who has challenged a 2004 CDC study that concluded the measles vaccine was not linked to autism, and works under government whistleblower protections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Thompson was working to compile data sources for future autism studies; he called it a \u201chigh priority for Secretary Kennedy.\u201d A note from the secretary appears just once in the email collection. He weighed in with a one-sentence message during a conversation with Thompson about a two-decade-old data set used by a former CDC researcher, Thomas Verstraeten.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cBill. I\u2019m assuming this is the verstratten original data,\u201d Kennedy wrote.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In interviews, former employees said they wrote their emails with history in mind; they wanted to document what was happening. By and large, the notes are polite exchanges between colleagues who are trying to get along under difficult circumstances. But Houry sometimes sounded exasperated, as when Burns asked for 10 years\u2019 worth of measles data while CDC \u201cdisease detectives\u201d were being deployed to Texas to fight the outbreak.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cLet me see how much work it will take team,\u201d Houry replied, clearly writing in a hurry. \u201cThe active measles response has to take priority.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bostonrelocationinsider.com\/?p=3615\">World Cup forecast: Timing pushes back thunderstorm threat for Friday\u2019s Foxborough match<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span><i>This article originally appeared in <\/i><i>The New York Times<\/i><i>.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A cache of internal emails offers a look at the pressure the nation\u2019s public health officials faced from the new health secretary in the early months of the Trump administration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3619,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3620","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
